Mental disorders are a rough thing. The people who commit suicide typically have thought about it for a long time, and what we might consider insensitivity over leaving family members in the lurch for their expenses or the horror at finding them, is massively overridden by feelings of pain. It's not so much that it's irrational, just they have a mental state that prioritizes ending that pain over nearly everything else.

Family members and friends shouldn't think of it as some sort of insult. They should instead encourage them to seek treatment and make a positive change in their lives.
ok, whatever. You're entitled to your opinion. The pain doesn't go away, it transfers to the ones that love you. To amplify that by allowing them to find you, is unforgivable to me. I have watched my family go through it more than once.

I have the shit in my family. I will never forgive the selfishness, of not only going through with it, but letting a loved one find them. Knowing they would find them. Fuck'em.
 
WHERE'S THAT GODDAMN BIRD?!!

I hope we see some snow when we go to Tennessee. I haven't seen any in years.

I suppose. Staying angry never really helps. The depression that caused the suicidal thoughts is usually a symptom of another problem. OCD, personality disorders, maybe drug abuse. They’re all inherently selfish, but the person gives into it because the pain becomes too much. The best the remaining friends and family can do is just forgive and move on. Mental health disorders should require those around to have compassion and help in getting treatment. It sucks, but the person involved rarely decides to change behavior on his/her own, without that help.

like, no shit. I dont have to be angry, to not forgive. I never think about them, until I hear about another asshole.

Well, okay. Going through life, pissed at mental illness ain’t gonna help though. I’ll drop it. Sorry about your wife’s friend.

I dont like being preached to about depression. You want to talk about depression with me? You have no clue how many times i thought it, and wished I was dead? I dont need a pity party for me, or "them" in general. Basically, save it for some one else. I dont need it.
 
As a parent that was with their child when they died, I would never wish any parent that experience. This is the only ignorance I am really jealous of. Mine wasn't a suicide either, which has got to be worse.

My grandmother found her husband, and her son, 3 years apart. They knew she would. If I say "fuck them", then what, im just angry? Nah, fuck them. They should have looked for help. I dont actively hate them, I dont give a flying fuck about them.

Yeah, I agree... having someone find your dead body is pretty friggin' rude. Be like a wounded animal and go somewhere to decompose in peace. Leave a note or whatever, but for the person that finds the body... that image is burned forever.
